    Practice Match #2: UWS Giants v Sydney Swans Reserves

    UWS Giants v Sydney Swans Reserves @ Tom Wills Oval
    Saturday 4th April 2015 12 noon

    A quick Google search reveals Tom Wills Oval to be in the Olympic Park precinct (well I hope it's this one and not some other one)

    Yep, it looks like they converted the Golf Driving range into the oval.

    Good to see Tom Wills getting some more credit.

    Here's the brilliant Neil Murray song Tom Wills Would - Neil Murray Video - YouTube

    "So if you're thinking to drop me from the team
    I won't go quietly I'll go mean
    Bugger me age and me cranky ways
    I'll send my bones to the contest again"

    and an article about the ground:
    GIANTS Honour Tom Wills - GWSGIANTS.com.au
    Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way you'll be a mile away and he'll be shoeless.

    Looking on Street View, it's right behind the P3 parking station.

    For those coming on the train on the Northern line, it's probably faster to alight at Concord West station and walk through Bicentennial Park to get to Tom Wills Oval.

    After much deliberation this morning, I've decided not to go to this match due to the rain. Anyone who is going if you could please post some updates, particularly on who is playing, would be appreciated. Thanks!

    We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time
